Hasn't had enough yet
A coup with effect! “It was very demoralizing”
Lando Norris has practically admitted his defeat in the world championship battle against defending Formula 1 champion Max Verstappen ahead of the Grand Prix in Las Vegas. "That was a crucial moment in the championship. The door is almost closed. It was very demoralizing," said the McLaren driver about the race in Brazil, from which Verstappen left with a 62-point lead. "At some point you just know it's probably not going to end for you," said Norris.
If Verstappen finishes ahead of Norris in Las Vegas on Sunday, the Dutchman will clinch his fourth world championship title. However, various other scenarios are also possible for the Red Bull driver, even if Norris finishes ahead of him in the daily standings.
"I think I gave him a very good fight," said Norris. In his opinion, Verstappen is one of the best Formula 1 drivers in history. "There won't be many better than him in the future." He was not good enough until the summer break in the world championship, the 25-year-old explained - and then unexpectedly found himself in a position to challenge Verstappen. "It hasn't happened to many people this early in their career," said Norris and confirmed: "I'll be ready for it next year."
